Also be sure to touch base with them when you leave for the night. This prof patrol is for all plant science grad students so if students are working late at CTC or any other building you should still let the prof on duty know so that they can stop by or call and check up on you throughout the evening. If you have a cell phone make sure you save the prof patrol number (223-4774) in your contacts as well as the security services phone number you can also use call the safewalk program and have someone walk you to you car. Don't hesitate to contact security services if you feel uncomfortable or see something suspicious. It is their job to check things out for you! You can call 555 from any campus phone #555 from a MTS or Rogers cell phone or 474-9341. Since we have all had a long and stressful couple of weeks its time for a pleasant event. We will be going for food and drinks at Tavern this Friday at 4:30. Come hang out and relax for a bit! I can hear the nachos calling my name :) Laura -- Bev Godard Secretary Department of Plant Science University of Manitoba 66 Dafoe Road Winnipeg, Manitoba R3T 2N2 Phone: (204) 474-8563 Fax: (204) 474-7528 Bev_Godard(a)umanitoba.ca
